Testimonial
"30 Poems in November! was a great writing discipline for me with the added satisfaction of supporting a good cause. I learned to write with less attachment to whether the day's work would be 'good' or 'bad' since I'd get another chance tomorrow. The celebratory reading offered a glimpse into the collective consciousness of poets in the Pioneer Valley, closing our year together with poems both humorous and profound." Jendi Reiter | 30 Poems in November! to benefit family literacy atCenter for New Americans 30 Poems in November! is a celebration of literacy Here's how to participate: 1.
